Complex systems approaches to the adaptability of human functions and behavior in health, aging, and chronic diseases: protocol for a meta-narrative review.
Article in Systematic reviews, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundEvaluating the adaptability of human functions and behavior has become a subject of growing interest due to aging populations and the increased prevalence of chronic diseases. Various research traditions, based on complex systems theories, have addressed the adaptability of human functions and behavior. However, despite the different research traditions, no review has so far compared them to provide a reliable and useful synthetic tool. Based on an adapted methodology, study objectives are to refine common and divergent traits in the way adaptability of the human functions and behavior has been studied via complex system approaches, with a special focus on aging and chronic diseases. In order to meet this objective, we will use the methodology of the meta-narrative review, and we present in this article the protocol that we will follow.
methodsThe meta-narrative review explores the contrasting and complementary ways in which researchers have studied a subject in order to synthesize information and extract theoretical and applied recommendations. In order to carry out this protocol, we detail our methodology of article extraction, coding, and synthesis. We present the six main stages of our review, from the planning stage to the recommendation stage, and the way we will implement the six principles that underpin the construction of a meta-narrative review. DISCUSSION: The use of a meta-narrative review methodology will yield greater visibility and comprehension of the adaptability of human functions and behavior studied via complex systems-based approaches. In a broader perspective, this paper is also geared to help future researchers carry out a meta-narrative review by highlighting the main challenges encountered and anticipated as well as elements to be taken into account before starting such a project.
